I always get dismayed everytime I waste time on CB and getting stun by monster instead of me dealing the damage. So hard for a complex weapon. I'm highly motivated to perfect it after seeing those savage axe modes. Thank you for this.
Wow thanks! Throw in a few Evade Window Decorations, they go a long way when playing Savage Axe. 👍 Plus the Fatalis Headpiece has built in Stun Res 3 for your convenience.
I like to think I'm decent with at least 13 of the 14 weapon categories it just takes practice.(I'm trash with longsword no matter how much I practice .😂😂)
my first ever "mentor" was a CB main, a rule of his was that i couldnt use any mantles that provided in-game buffs or dodges, man was brutal looking back at it.
Best way to learn any Monster or Weapon bro! I didn't expand from Glaive until i was HR 450+ and i really wanted to learn Hammer soo bad so i made a Build, Left my Palico behind, Took off Mantles, w no Evade Window and played Ode To The Destruction over and OVER until i got a Sub 5 minute time... Worked with every Weapon! ☺👍
@@kensheldon7430 Vid was really cool. I got back into monster hunter about 3-4 weeks ago and have been sinking hours into it. I just got up to velkhana in iceborne essentially playing only sword and shield and once I finish Iceborne the plan is to branch off into playing different weapons. I've already started trying to use greatsword and have been steadily learning but still struggle with MR uragaan... Are there any other tips you have besides this for learning weapons better? I've never tried a complete-solo-run on anything (no palico, no mantle) and I think I'll try it, it sounds like a great way to learn.
Sorry this is so late, i didn't see your message till now. If you are still interested i have the perfect thing to help learn EVERY weapon with each new one becoming easier and easier. High Rank Nergigante... More specifically Tempered and AT Nerg, why? You want a tough Monster that won't go down easily, but not so hard that you spent most of the fight popping Max Potions, you will learn Nergigante backwards and fowards which will allow you to focus on timing, combos and hitboxes, But the biggest thing is he's one of the few Monsters with no Status/Ailment besides the occasional Bleed proc, again less time fixing problems, more time finding your rhythm. He's just your straight up brawler perfect for practice. Hope you're still enjoying this masterpiece. 👍
Amazing gameplay. Man I loved this weapon when I started playing mhw. As hunts got hard with little room for error, I took the easy way out by learning the long sword and the swag axe. Im trying to make a comeback with the cb and learn hunting horn too.
If you're on Playstation 4 or 5 i really could teach you everything you need to know in about ten minutes... No need for these lengthy tutorials. Just in case, my PSN ID is AtomicAltruism BTW You're not at all "too stupid" it took me hundreds of fights with each weapon to even look remotely competent using them. For the record my weakness was the Long Sword, bro those Fade windows took my dumbass almost 1000 fights to get used to.
It's not as hard as people make it out to be. Really all about phial management and how you want to use them. And playing savage axe gets you tons of KO, staggers and knockdowns for huge damage potential.
@@chasegaetze4507 Some Gamers get it right out the box... Most do not, it's in the top 3 most Technical Weapons for a reason, it took me HUNDREDS of Hunts to look remotely competent with CB. I'm glad it wasn't a hastle for you at least 👍
Great to hear! Deva has a fantastic CB Guide i looked to on more than one occasion, might be worth a peek. Are you excited for Monster Hunter Wilds? I know i am, apparently we'll be able to take 2 Weapons out on Hunts. Can you believe that?!? Game changer 😮
Your Rise Runs are fantastic! More eyes on those are sorely needed. But i guess in the end World still holds more hearts... Come over to World and i'm willing to bet your time and effort will pay dividends! ☺👍
Just started the game yesterday and I been using dual blades and charge blade a lot however I’m not used to charge blade as much, I been using elemental damage like dragon for easy kills on elder dragons and creature weak against element dragon. Wondering if you could give me some tips about it since I enjoy using charge blade for its combos and what not yk.
In terms of getting used to AEDs, SAEDs, Guardpoints etc i would defer to an in depth Tutorial because i don't all day to type! 😂 Gear i might be able to help with to maximize Damage and ease of play. 1st forget Set Bonuses and focus on Armor with the most Deco Slots possible. 2nd do The Greatest Jagras Quest over and over until you have more than you could want. 3rd aim to Slot in a mix of the following, Focus 2-3 for faster Phial Charging, Capacity Boost to add an extra Phial tic for more Bang for your Buck!, Guead Up for the hardest hitting Monsters, Guard 2-3 as Charging your Shield add 2 levels of Guard by default, as much Crit Eye as possible, Health Boost for survivability... Less time healing = more time attacking, Power Prolonger 2-3 is optional though it does drastically increase the length of time the CB is charged. I tell most people who ask questions like this, if you're on Playstation just add me then we could discuss at any length whatever you want. AtomicAltruism is my ID.
Glad to hear it. Sword and Shield is so OP in World now isn't it? I find the timing and positioning harder to master then the CB personally, but they are both fine choices for Hunts! 😄
Very nice. Is it possible to play both styles SAED and Savage Axe with the same build? Maybe this is a dumb question cause you are doing it in the video, but would you recommend it for a new player?
If you've already wrapped your head around the fundamentals of both SAED and SA styles then HELL YEAH!!! It's my favorite way to play, plus it keeps you sharp and responsive when a certain style might be useful in any given fight. You can have a balanced half and half Build and still have WAY too much fun with Charge Blade! ☺👍
I played CB thought entire LR and HR of base game, however I gave up using it at around Barioth fight in Iceborne as it was super aggressive and everytime i tried to do something to it would jump away. My question is how do you manage to use Charge Blade against hyper aggresive monsters like Barioth or Fatalis, even? It seems like such a hard task for weapons like Charge Blade that need to manage 69 stuff at once compared to faster and simple weapons like Longsword, per se
I know exactly what you mean, Charge Blade users need the Airline Pre Flight Checks to use! 😂 The only thing i can say is repetition makes for easy work, Barioth for example, he is a crazy boy! Generally with him, Rajang, Odogaron, Yian etc. I'll start by slapping on my Rockstaedy Mantle, make sure i can get off a Wall Bang, Soften his Left Wing, Charge my Shield w Max Phials and Charge my Sword for good measure. Now i'm good to go. I'll try to bait out certain attacks by positioning myself in different locations around him, find my window and break that Wing. Once that is done it's game over for Barioth! Taking these fast boys out takes time and practice to learn, they all get tired eventually, they will repeat moves so when you see a familiar one you can position yourself to punish... That's all it is. Other things that help keep you charged in spite of the fast boys can be as follows, Wall Bangs (when not enraged), Pitfall/Shock Traps, Flash Pods, Guard Pointing slowly builds up K.O. damage for those sweet Topples, Palico's eq with Para/Sleep weapons. Persistence really does pay off... Keep trying my friend! ☺👍
Nice vid! Do you have any build videos? I want to make some nasty damage builds using peak performance which I see you're using, but I'm having a hard time looking up any cb builds that also use it
Don't have any plans for that unfortunately as i don't specialize with any one Weapon, as for Peak, do you have the Iceborne Expansion? If so and you're willing to take on AT Velkhana, her Greaves/Legs are best in slot and comes with Peak 3! I use them for most of my Builds. I don't min max for the most part i just use what's comfy. With Full Fatty EVERY Build is comfy! ☺👍
Got a question. How do you use the element discharged with losing only one phial? It did work for me but just in case when the shield isn’t charged up, However in the video you did it with shield charged up. Do you get it ? How did you do that. Pretty nice video btw 👍
Charge Phials, Charge Shield then Charge Phials again. Once that is done i think you're talking about AEDs, attept an SAED with Triangle followed by Triangle+Circle but as the Sword slots into the Shield pull back on the Left Analog Stick (toward the camera). Try it on the Training Dummy then report back and let me know if that's what u meant. ☺👍
Dunno if you gonna reply, but I’m a freshie straight out of the ending of the base game. Just bought Iceborne and I’m currently trying to find an endgame build that I would go towards for the CB. I’m using a variation of the Dodogama one, Rarity 7 and I’m gearing up 2 azure and 3 nergigante armor sets. What do you think is the best choice for me?
Shortest answer?... Farm Beo right at the start of Icebourne, why? Cause MR hits like a bus driven by King Kong, more Specs we'll have to chat, too many variables to type sorry, if you're Playstation my PSN is AtomicAltruism i'd be happy to help and discuss Builds and upgrade paths with you.
@@kensheldon7430 sadly im a pc guy, and i know MHW is notorious for having absolutely zero crossplay. I'm still grateful that you've answered me, and yes the difficulty spike felt right after I encountered my first Lunastra.
I keep getting discouraged from playing this weapon cause I just can’t do counters and guard points. Can I still be a good CB player even if I don’t use them? I’m sorry if this is a weird question. Haha. But I figured I’d ask cause you engage with your community a lot !
For sure! There are 2 sides to Charge Blades... The 1 is using your Phials for AED/SAED Play and 2 (which does the same if not more Damage) SAVAGE AXE Play! All the Damage minus the Guard Windows, just roll 😊 i have a Savage Build that acts just like a regular weapons with Crit, Wex, Crit Boost, Attack, Agi and Peak. It's beautiful man you gotta try it. When u do, tell me how it goes! 😄
After watching this one-sided obliteration (beautiful!), i have this lingering question. Since you seem to answer even on old video, i'll try : is charging the blade (right trigger, hold triangle) really worth it ? For information, i launched a new character after a few years break (Big lover of IG, but wanted some change). Been using the CB on the very first line at the forge (the explosive one, with shock vials). i am nearly the end of expert difficulty. I learnt yesterday of Savage axe (LOVE THAT) and really hesitate on using the blade buff since i am VERY rusty, and the buff is very short. Also, i am not knowledgeable on the technical terms of the game (i barely know SAED lol) Hope i am not being a bother Have a nice day
Glad to hear people trying new things in World! The Blade Buff is very useful, for starters it doesn't bounce ie: Minds Eye and IMO more importantly it makes your regular Attacks much faster. It's like 10-15 percent faster while the buff is active, that might not seem like alot at first, but when you're regularly rotating it in throughout your combos it's really effective. What i would suggest is going to the Training Area and using the Sword Buff after Shield Buff and just Wail on the Barrel/Clutch prop using only the 🔺️into 🔺️🔵 combo, time it and when the buff runs out do the same combo for the same amount of time and see the difference. I did and never looked back! 👌
Is this full kushala gear or just a layered set? I'm curious as to the build and weapon. From all of the KO and topples I'm guessing this is an impact phial CB.
It's just Layered, the Set is as you'd guess, full Fatalis w/AT Velk Greaves and Fatty CB Built for AED/SAEDs with Impact Mantle and a bunch of lucky AEDs to the face... Not a fast Run, just looked pretty great from my POV.
Nice! Gold Rathian is a Truck with wings, good luck with the grind. ☺👍 I'm using the Fatalis CB purely for the monstrous Raw potential and the two 4 slot Decorations built in.
@@kensheldon7430 thanks I got it,now I have to fight some dragon that switches elements and he’s hard to beat 😭 hopefully his weapons are worth it or at least his armor
@@cloutlord5033 Weapons yes, Armor no not really, get your hands on Frostfangs CB asap as it will drastically reduce the difficulty of that particular fight!
@@cloutlord5033od luck with alatreon. He is the gate keeper to fatalis anyway lol. Other than frostfang cb, the beotodus cb is a also pretty good ice element cb when fully augmented.... OR...if you willing to farm and able to grasp the Kjarr Ice cb which is the ice god weapon in the game.
I kept my Phials charged for Tick K.O.s, i hit the Head and Forlegs as often as possible, Impact Mantle for Maximum K.O. up time, plus those Spinning Attacks are while using a Charged Savage Axe... After a rotation of Hits it will Discharge Phials and deal K.O. Damage when hitting the Head and Forlegs.
Topples = K.O. when you deal enough K.O. Damage the Monster will come crashing down. You can Topple by attacking the Legs, Head and Body depending on the Monster. Head Breaks will often leave the Monster more vulnerable to Topples as well.
This video was crazy good. I just started playing a few days ago and instantly went for charge blade despite knowing it was not an easy weapon. I'm getting really good at the fundamentals for charging shield, sword, SA, SAED etc but I can't seem to really find much info on optimal ways to flow from one thing to the next. For instance what are the best or fastest sword combos for charging phials. Should I always do fuller combos leading into axe transform or just Triangle+R2. Your savage axe combos were super clean as well. I guess I am looking for a more advanced guide. I know its a lot to type out but if you could point me in the right direction it would be super appreciated!
For people who think too dumb for CB, it's okay bro everybody think like that at beginning (me also 😂). Back then I even didn't know that charging shield will trigger SAED, how to counter-guard, or press down + triangle will perform AED in charging shield. I got stun and fainted a lot times, but I did try and error. Now I am using CB from LR to MR Fatalis. I have tried another weapons but no one suits me like CB. I play CB in MHR also
Fatalis CB H/Af Aug, 4 Piece Fatalis w AT Velk Greaves, Agi 7, Crit 7, Art 5, Guard 5, Evade 3, Focus 3, Peak 3, Qu Sheath 2, Guard Up, + some tertiary Decorations that came along with the Build. And there you have it, your bog standard End Game/No Life Build. ☺👍
Oh you’re replying to comments even if the video is a month old, might as well ask something something myself! I use charge blade and I’d say I’m decent at it, I got the phial system down as well as the modes and I can guard point half of the time but there’s just one thing I don’t get.. When I do that big move that consumes all of your phials(SAED? I think), my phial damage is pathetic! It does like 20 per tick and I’m using the frostfang barioth CB so I’m super confused on how endgame gear would get me that low damage So if you can let me know the skills or whatever impact that phial damage because I only know artillery but that’s only impact phials Thanks!
No problem. Impact Phials are set and are NOT effected by Crit, Damage modifiers obviously help like Attack, Agi, Peak etc but for Phial Damage specifically Artillery and or eating for Felyne Bombardier is the Key, and Capacity Boost for that extra Phial. For Raw that is, Element Phials are trickier to Build for properly, but Coalescence, 3-5 Piece Safi will boost, Augment for more Element and for Kjarr don't forget to Custom upgrade for Element too... That will get them CRAZY high Elemental Damage, Kjarr CBs are best for these and don't forget that unlike Impact Phials, Power Element Phials do different damage numbers relative to which part you hit compared to Impact which is set no matter where you hit. I prefer Impact by and large as it's more consistent. Sorry it's long, hope it helps. 👌
BTW if you're on Playstation my ID is AtomicAltruism if you'd like to discuss/trade Builds as i have Discusting Builds for each Weapon, or just to Hunt then hit me up if you got a Mic 😊
Well.. not gonna lie I’d like to hear about builds and some mechanics I don’t fully understand yet, I’m a hungry learner buuuut.. I doubt you’d want to hang out with me. I’m what I call half mute, I can only whisper and a lot of people find it really annoying.
I've done 200+ of this boy lol I started with Glaive and my first W against Stygian i think took around 35 minutes with multiple retries... People like me make it look easy, but we no life this game. I myself have 4600+ hours in World. 😆 If you're on the PSN i'd gladly go on Hunts with you! My PSN ID is AtomicAltruism if you wanna team up. Thanks for the compliment btw 😊

Did you do it by mistake like i did? (Then proceed to freak the F**k out trying to replicate it?!?) 😂😂😂
I went "Holy shit!!! A chainsaw!??" Then spent the next two hours learning how to press two buttons at once
Damnn that was really good, I just unlocked the gold Rathan so I’m crafting her charge blade. Which one are you using
Nice! Gold Rathian is a Truck with wings, good luck with the grind. ☺👍
I'm using the Fatalis CB purely for the monstrous Raw potential and the two 4 slot Decorations built in.
@@kensheldon7430 thanks I got it,now I have to fight some dragon that switches elements and he’s hard to beat 😭 hopefully his weapons are worth it or at least his armor
@@cloutlord5033 Weapons yes, Armor no not really, get your hands on Frostfangs CB asap as it will drastically reduce the difficulty of that particular fight!
@@cloutlord5033od luck with alatreon. He is the gate keeper to fatalis anyway lol.
Other than frostfang cb, the beotodus cb is a also pretty good ice element cb when fully augmented.... OR...if you willing to farm and able to grasp the Kjarr Ice cb which is the ice god weapon in the game.
@@79kopi79 Well said.
And yet some people still think that monster hunter combat is boring
WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?!?
TELL ME THEIR NAMES?!?
LET ME AT 'EM!!!
why is it so easy for you to stun the zinogre with the spinning attack mode?
I kept my Phials charged for Tick K.O.s, i hit the Head and Forlegs as often as possible, Impact Mantle
for Maximum K.O. up time, plus those Spinning Attacks are while using a Charged Savage Axe...
After a rotation of Hits it will Discharge Phials and deal K.O. Damage when hitting the Head and Forlegs.
Hello, i was reading the comment and i found manny people said about "topples" can you explain to me what is "topples"?
Topples = K.O. when you deal enough K.O. Damage the Monster will come crashing down. You can Topple by attacking the Legs, Head and Body depending on the Monster. Head Breaks will often leave the Monster more vulnerable to Topples as well.
@@kensheldon7430 oke i get it. Thank you for explaining this to me. Really appreciate it
This video was crazy good. I just started playing a few days ago and instantly went for charge blade despite knowing it was not an easy weapon. I'm getting really good at the fundamentals for charging shield, sword, SA, SAED etc but I can't seem to really find much info on optimal ways to flow from one thing to the next. For instance what are the best or fastest sword combos for charging phials. Should I always do fuller combos leading into axe transform or just Triangle+R2. Your savage axe combos were super clean as well. I guess I am looking for a more advanced guide. I know its a lot to type out but if you could point me in the right direction it would be super appreciated!
Stygian zinogre like silver rathalos variant, about the colour
I learn it in 2 days.
Fun to use
Not bad.
I learned it in 2 weeks. 😁
For people who think too dumb for CB, it's okay bro everybody think like that at beginning (me also 😂). Back then I even didn't know that charging shield will trigger SAED, how to counter-guard, or press down + triangle will perform AED in charging shield. I got stun and fainted a lot times, but I did try and error. Now I am using CB from LR to MR Fatalis. I have tried another weapons but no one suits me like CB. I play CB in MHR also
I need to stop using LS, GS and the bow... I MUST play the gigachad hunter weapons
You must play ALL 14 WEAPONS!!!!
I kinda want to see your decos and build
Fatalis CB H/Af Aug, 4 Piece Fatalis w AT Velk Greaves, Agi 7, Crit 7, Art 5, Guard 5, Evade 3, Focus 3, Peak 3, Qu Sheath 2, Guard Up, + some tertiary Decorations that came along with the Build.
And there you have it, your bog standard End Game/No Life Build. ☺👍
@@kensheldon7430 thanks a lot brotherman
Damn capturing again for another day of suffer. Animal abuse too real
Bro just used 50 different sword style against him
Nowhere near a Speedrun, but when you only get hit a few times against Stygian Zinogre it's a W! 😂
Oh you’re replying to comments even if the video is a month old, might as well ask something something myself!
I use charge blade and I’d say I’m decent at it, I got the phial system down as well as the modes and I can guard point half of the time but there’s just one thing I don’t get.. When I do that big move that consumes all of your phials(SAED? I think), my phial damage is pathetic! It does like 20 per tick and I’m using the frostfang barioth CB so I’m super confused on how endgame gear would get me that low damage
So if you can let me know the skills or whatever impact that phial damage because I only know artillery but that’s only impact phials
Thanks!
No problem.
Impact Phials are set and are NOT effected by Crit, Damage modifiers obviously help like Attack, Agi, Peak etc but for Phial Damage specifically Artillery and or eating for Felyne Bombardier is the Key, and Capacity Boost for that extra Phial. For Raw that is, Element Phials are trickier to Build for properly, but Coalescence, 3-5 Piece Safi will boost, Augment for more Element and for Kjarr don't forget to Custom upgrade for Element too... That will get them CRAZY high Elemental Damage, Kjarr CBs are best for these and don't forget that unlike Impact Phials, Power Element Phials do different damage numbers relative to which part you hit compared to Impact which is set no matter where you hit. I prefer Impact by and large as it's more consistent.
Sorry it's long, hope it helps. 👌
BTW if you're on Playstation my ID is AtomicAltruism if you'd like to discuss/trade Builds as i have Discusting Builds for each Weapon, or just to Hunt then hit me up if you got a Mic 😊
Well.. not gonna lie I’d like to hear about builds and some mechanics I don’t fully understand yet, I’m a hungry learner buuuut.. I doubt you’d want to hang out with me. I’m what I call half mute, I can only whisper and a lot of people find it really annoying.
@@a-lone-wolf4130 lol waaat?!?
